Accu-Chek SmartGuide Sensor

Can I wear the sensor when I get an X-ray or an MRI?

No, the sensor must be removed before entering medical treatment areas with high-powered medical electric equipment, for example magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computed tomography (CT), X-ray, radiotherapy, or diathermia.

However, you can wear the sensor in the full-body scanners used at the airport.

Accu-Chek SmartGuide Sensor

How do I remove the sensor?

Start peeling off the adhesive pad on the flattened side of the sensor.
Inspect the back of the sensor: Make sure that the sensing element of the sensor has been completely removed from the insertion site after removing it. Check the insertion site by using your finger or check it visually. If the sensing element remained in your skin or the application site feels unusual (for example, painful, swollen or red) contact your healthcare professional.
